Book excerpt: Bien que largement couverte, la guerre d'Algérie laisse la sensation, notamment pour la communauté pied-noire, d'une absence d'images pour la raconter. Mais qu'en est-il vraiment ? L'historien Benjamin Stora s'interroge sur la place de l'image sur la guerre d'Algérie et, par extension, sur le toujours difficile travail de mémoire de la France à son égard. Comment expliquer que la sensation d'absence d'images sur les " événements d'Algérie " ait longtemps dominé, harkis, immigrés ou appelés du contingent ? Est-ce que, très tôt, la France n'aurait pas voulu " regarder " cette page sanglante de son histoire ? Le paradoxe est qu'en réalité la guerre d'Algérie a été montrée de mille façons : images fixes des photographies, publiées dans des magazines tel Paris Match ; images de cinéma, issues de films qui n'ont pas tous laissé un souvenir mémorable ; images de documentaires, nombreux à partir des années 1990, provenant surtout des archives de l'Ina ou de l'armée française. Effet de génération ? Plus la longue histoire de la présence française en Algérie s'éloigne, plus elle semble enfin combler ses " lacunes mémorielles ". Et l'historien de s'interroger : le passage à l'image pour l'écriture de l'histoire est-il un moyen efficace d'approcher une vérité ? L'avalanche des images est-elle, au contraire, un frein pour la connaissance ? Une réflexion menée à la lumière du " travail de mémoire visuelle " entrepris par Benjamin Stora depuis plus de trente ans, au fil des films de fiction et documentaires auxquels il a contribué.

Book excerpt: La guerre française en Algérie (1954-1962) et la guerre américaine au Viêt-nam (1964-1975) ont laissé des séquelles profondes dans l'histoire contemporaine. Elles ont causé la mort de 30 000 soldats français, de 59 000 soldats américains, de près de 400 000 Algériens, et de 1,7 million de Vietnamiens. Elles ont provoqué la chute de la IV° République en France, la démission de Richard Nixon aux États-Unis, et l'accession à l'indépendance de deux grands pays du tiers monde. Et entraîné des déplacements massifs de populations. Au-delà de leurs dissemblances, ces deux guerres présentent un étrange point commun: elles n'ont jamais été déclarées officiellement. Dans les deux cas, la mémoire de ces conflits dans les deux sociétés, française et américaine, en a été profondément affectée. Benjamin Stora propose dans ce livre une ambitieuse comparaison de la façon dont l'imaginaire de la guerre s'est construit en France et aux États-Unis, pendant les conflits eux-mêmes, et après. Il s'appuie pour ce faire sur l'étude des dizaines de films et des milliers d'ouvrages consacrés à ces guerres de part et d'autre de l'Atlantique, mais aussi sur celle de documents inédits retrouvés dans les archives vietnamiennes. Il montre ainsi comment se sont construites des images distordues des deux guerres pendant qu'elles se déroulaient et explique comment ces historiens ont ensuite conduit à l'oubli des conséquences de la guerre. Un livre d'histoire original, qui est aussi une réflexion profonde sur le rôle des images et des écrits dans les sociétés modernes.

Book excerpt: Ce dossier d'Historiens et Géographes revient sur l'historiographie de la guerre d'Algérie à l'occasion du cinquantième anniversaire du début du conflit. Contrairement à une idée reçue, les historiens n'ont jamais cessé de s'intéresser à cette « boîte à chagrin », selon la formule du général de Gaulle. La remarquable progression de l'histoire scientifique s'oppose encore, au début du XXIe siècle, à la régression flagrante du débat public qui tend souvent vers une exacerbation de la guerre des mémoires. Le conflit algérien pose en effet des questions politiques et sociales, qui doivent être considérées avec le recul de l'historien. Ce dossier se propose ainsi de compléter les colloques universitaires et les essais historiques récents en rassemblant des synthèses inédites écrites par de prestigieux spécialistes. L'État français a longtemps refusé de reconnaître les « événements d'Algérie » et la mémoire française de la guerre doit être étudiée de manière objective afin de permettre un débat dépassionné, dans l'enseignement comme dans la société.

Book excerpt: After over 120 years of French colonial rule in Algeria, the growing aspirations for independence culminated in the Algerian Revolution of 1954, which lasted until 1962. In order to combat the uprisings, the French civilian and military authorities reorganised the entire territory of the country, swiftly erected new infrastructures and pursued building policies that were ultimately intended to stabilize French dominance in Algeria.The study describes the architectural responses undertaken in the midst of this protracted and bloody armed conflict. It analyses their origins, evolutions and objectives, identifies the actors involved and reveals the underlying design methods.

Download or read book Burning the Veil written by Neil McMaster and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-15 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Burning the Veil draws upon sources from newly-opened archives, exploring the "emancipation" of Muslim women from the veil, seclusion and perceived male oppression during the Algerian War of decolonization. The claimed French liberation was contradicted by the violence inflicted on women through rape, torture, and destruction of villages. This book examines the roots of this contradiction in the theory of "revolutionary warfare", and the attempt to defeat the National Liberation Front by penetrating the Muslim family, seen as a bastion of resistance. Striking parallels with contemporary Afghanistan and Iraq, French "emancipation" produced a backlash that led to deterioration in the social and political position of Muslim women. This analysis of how and why attempts to Westernize Muslim women ended in catastrophe has contemporary relevance and will be important to students and academics engaged in the study of French and colonial history, feminism, and contemporary Islam.

Download or read book Le Tumulte Noir written by Jody Blake and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jody Blake demonstrates in this book that although the impact of African-American music and dance in France was constant from 1900 to 1930, it was not unchanging. This was due in part to the stylistic development and diversity of African-American music and dance, from the prewar cakewalk and ragtime to the postwar Charleston and jazz. Successive groups of modernists, beginning with the Matisse and Picasso circle in the 1900s and concluding with the Surrealists and Purists in the 1920s, constructed different versions of la musique and la danse negre. Manifested in creative and critical works, these responses to African-American music and dance reflected the modernists' varying artistic agendas and historical climates.

Download or read book European Armies and the Conduct of War written by Hew Strachan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-07-28 with total page 435 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discussing the key issues of modern warfare, Hew Strachan’s work examines the theory and practice of land warfare in Europe since 1700. Looking at warfare in the context of social and political change, Dr. Strachan interprets his subject matter as widely as possible, and European Armies and the Conduct of War considers the roles of air power and the impact of the United States on European military developments. Through the eyes of the major theorists of the day, European Armies examines: * how the social and political influences which shape armies, also mould the attitude of those armies to warfare * the story of techicnal innovation * the mounting pace of industrialization and its impact of warfare. Recent military history has tended to focus on the relationship between armies and society and there has been much original research on the subject of the conduct of war. This book brings these approaches together, providing information and insight vital to the study of this fascinating era.

Moch positions her work within immigration theory, connecting migration studies to theories about state projects of assimilation and about cultures of inclusion and exclusion.

Download or read book Water Heritage written by Willem Willems and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-15 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water is vital for life, and its availability has been a concern for mankind throughout the ages. Its presence has always been ascertained in a variety of ways and the development of human society everywhere is connected with various forms of water management. Man also needed to manage water to find protection from its dangers and the need for that is increasing. In the coming decades, the impact of climate change is expected to intensify floods and droughts, affect groundwater resources, raise sea levels, increase pollution and enhance the frequency and magnitude of disasters. Societies around the world are challenged to adapt to these threats to ensure water security, economic prosperity and environmental and cultural sustainability. This book deals with the heritage of water management and the use that was made of water, as well as the impact of water management on heritage. An example of the former may be an ancient irrigation system in the Filipines or in the Middle East that still functions today, while the latter may reflect the importance of maintaining groundwater levels for the preservation of organic remains on archaeological sites or of wooden piles underneath standing buildings. In either case the papers in this book reflect the dynamic nature of water, and hence the equally dynamic relation between water management and heritage. This publication follows up on a Heritage and Water conference in Amsterdam, the first of its kind. Its main purpose is to credibly present the importance and value of heritage and historical experience for water and sustainable development, and vice versa, present the importance of water management for the protection of heritage. It presents evolving insights and concepts about Water and about Heritage from a variety of disciplines, policy and public perspectives illustrated with cases studies and aims to connect decision makers with experts such as engineers, archaeologists, historians, geographers, ecologist and landscape architects
